Preparation

50 mins

Low

Preheat the oven to 200°C. For the filling, peel and slice the apples into very thin slices, place in a bowl and mix with the nuts, blueberries, and rum. Macerate for 30 minutes, drain well, and set aside. Roll out the puff pastry on a floured surface to a thickness of 3 mm, using a 10 cm diameter cutter to cut out discs. Fill the puff pastry discs with apples and a bit of dulce de leche, using your hands to fold and seal the pastries. Place on a baking sheet, brush with egg, and sprinkle with nuts. Bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown. Serve with milk or coffee.

Tips

You can let the apples macerate overnight to absorb more flavor. Use Granny Smith apples for a more tart filling that contrasts better with the dulce de leche.
